Filthy sensationalist journalism - On a day seeing continued drop in deaths and cases with ongoing downward trends across the board. Putting the UK on here is nothing more than shameful click-baiting. Second rate.

Why is the UK on there when the cases reported here yesterday were one of the lowest reported yet with 31 other countries reporting a higher number? Also Spain reported no new cases at all!
